Hello,
Have you ever considered changing the naming convention for the term “services”?
The term “service” in Centreon actually means a “check” or a “test”. Many times, when training our users how to use Centreon, we had to explain that “services” in Centreon should not be confused with services in Windows or some other activities/services that involve “doing things” for customers or other systems and that they should think of them as tests or checks.
Best regards,
Jaroslaw Kesy

Hello,
Changing the naming convention for a term like “services” in Centreon to something more intuitive like “checks” or “tests” could indeed help reduce confusion, especially for new users. It’s a common challenge in software design to choose terminology that is both accurate and user-friendly.
If there’s a consensus that the term “services” is misleading, the Centreon community or development team might consider renaming it in future updates. This could involve discussions within the community, feedback collection, and possibly a formal proposal for change. It’s important that any change is well-documented and communicated to all users to ensure a smooth transition.
I hope the information may helps you.
